When a society falls apart, it’s hard to know exactly how it will all fracture and break apart. We can tell a little bit of our course by the challenges we face as a community, a nation, a world of countries. When war is at your door, you can predict what things you won’t have: electricity, water, gas, safety, and so forth. When a natural disaster strikes, you can also bet on the same services falling apart, and, given the length of the disaster, maybe social order too. Some disasters have a local or regional zone and impacted radius. Some are larger in scope and suck in other stable areas like a spiraling vortex.
How does it fall apart, though? What can you expect from a complete supply chain failure? How can that spiral out of control and pull you and your safe zone in like a vortex? In this video, I want to take you through some of the significant failures that can occur in the supply chain and how they can place pressure on and potentially cause other systems to fail. Our world is a network of systems. As one system fails, it can burden different systems and may cause their failure as well. Understanding these connections, their push and pull, their cause and effect helps us understand and even predict the sequence of any disaster. It helps us know what will play out next.
